The books of Ruth and Esther recount two of the most memorable stories in all of Scripture: Ruth, a displaced widow in search of a new home and loving husband, and Esther, a courageous queen intent on saving her people from imminent destruction.
Plumbing the theological depths, this guide explains the biblical text with clarity and passion—leading us on a journey to discover the God who hears the cries of his people and remains faithful to his promises.

– Asks thoughtful questions to spur discussion
– Shows how each passage unveils the gospel
– Ties the text in with the whole story of Scripture
– Illuminates the doctrines taught in each passage
– Invites you to discover practical implications
